Hi,

 

Can we use the same service account for integration with multiple applications.

Once the account is set up and API is generated any other authentication is required for establishing the connection.

@asha nair Welcome to the Atlassian community.

The APIs are available as long as you can authenticate.  You could use the same service account to connect from all of your integrations.  I would not recommend this.  I would also not recommend using a service account.  Best practices would be to use OAuth to connect to the Atlassian API.  The each application is connecting to the API through unique credentials that are more secure than a service account.
